This research program in water resources engineering provides a number of opportunities to investigate questions in the emerging field of eco-hydraulics. This proposal has three main projects: 1) Fish Passage and Habitat Structures in Rivers; 2) Turbulent Jets in Hydraulic Engineering; and 3) Environmental Hydraulics. Fish passage and habitat structures in rivers: Fish passage past either man-made or natural obstructions in rivers is important for the survival of fish in our rivers. My research group has made significant contributions to the design of various fishways (e.g. pool and weir, Denil, vertical slot and culvert fishways) so that these can be designed for most situations. We have made a preliminary contribution to one type of nature-like Boulder ramp fishway, and we want to develop a general design of and also study the Riffle-Pool type during the next five years. Turbulent jets are very important in the design of hydraulic structures. We studied the hydraulics of submerged jump stilling basins and want to develop a standard basin for submerged flows below hydraulic structures. We have developed a general analysis of circular hydraulic jumps and plan to develop a general design for practical use. We are also studying slurry jets to help in the reclamation of oil sands ponds in Northern Alberta and to make a general contribution to two-phase turbulent jets. This project has the potential for the remediation of granular nuclear wastes. Environmental hydraulics: We have studied and helped design plungeflow dropshafts in the City of Edmonton's drainage system. We plan to improve these designs to reduce odour problems in the drainage systems. These studies will be done in collaboration with the City of Edmonton, which may increase its practical application in other municipalities.

这个水资源工程的研究项目提供了许多机会来调查生态水力学新兴领域的问题。该提案有三个主要项目：1）河流中的鱼类通道和栖息地结构; 2）水力工程中的湍流射流; 3）环境水力学。河流中的鱼类通道和栖息地结构：鱼类通过河流中的人为或天然障碍物对鱼类在河流中的生存至关重要。我的研究小组对各种鱼道的设计做出了重大贡献（例如池和堰，Denil，垂直槽和涵洞鱼道），以便这些鱼道可以设计用于大多数情况。我们已经对一种类似自然的博尔德坡道鱼道做出了初步的贡献，我们希望在未来五年内开发一种总体设计，并研究Riffle-Pool类型。紊动射流在水工建筑物设计中具有重要的作用。我们研究了潜跳消力池的水力学，并希望开发一个标准的水池淹没流低于水工建筑物。我们已经对圆形水跃进行了一般分析，并计划为实际应用开发一个一般设计。我们还在研究泥浆射流，以帮助北方阿尔伯塔的油砂池的开垦，并对两相湍流射流做出一般性贡献。该项目具有颗粒核废料补救的潜力。环境水力学：我们研究并帮助设计了埃德蒙顿市排水系统的倾流竖井。我们计划改善这些设计，以减少排水系统的气味问题。这些研究将与埃德蒙顿市合作进行，这可能会增加其在其他城市的实际应用。
